After my initial colonoscopy, my consultant referred me to Dr. Dhillon to assess for removal of two complex polyps by ESD. While being a real expert in his field, he has a friendly, reassuring and approachable manner. He is empathetic and takes time to answer questions and carefully explain his treatment plan and decisions. As a patient, I felt understood and listened to. Dr. Dhillon devoted extra time to giving me a thorough second colonoscopy and polypectomy, so that ESD surgery was not needed in the end. I have recovered well and been given the all-clear to enjoy life. I cannot thank him enough for my successful outcome.

I had a great experience with Dr Dhillon. He is professional, very knowledgeable and extremely polite. He did a CT scan and colonoscopy for me and clearly explained the results. I think what most I appreciate of Dr Dhillon is his responsiveness and interaction via email, a very rare trait amongst busy doctors that is most welcome. I would highly recommend Dr Dhillon to anyone that wants a professional, empathic and knowledgeable gastroenterologist.

Poor bowel preparation is the leading cause of failed colonoscopies and increases costs significantly. Several, split preparation, 2 day regimens are available and recently, Plenvu, a low-volume preparation which can be given on 1 day has been introduced.

Endoscopic resection of premalignant lesions from the colorectum can prevent the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). This is largely dependent on the quality of colonoscopy performed and can be divided into 3 areas: lesion detection, lesion resection, and appropriate surveillance. Quality assurance programs and colonoscopy quality indicators have been developed to ensure that endoscopists operate within accepted standards of care.
